🇨🇳→🌍
Solo dev from China building AI iOS apps for the US. Posting the real numbers, the AI workflow, and what broke along the way.

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

我是见山，独立开发者，正在用 AI 一个人做出海 iOS App。

这里会记录真实过程：
· AI 写 App 的工作流和踩过的坑
· 怎么用 UGC 视频获客
· 收入和转化数据，好的坏的都会晒

第一款 App 开发中，上线后公开第一个月的数据。

Slideshows or AI UGC: which should a solo iOS dev try first?

I've made O videos and spent $0 on ads so far.

If you've tested either, what actually moved downloads?

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@SuperEileenee 那就从电视剧开始呗，聊着聊着说不定就能聊到别的。她最近在追什么？

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@runes_leo 这条太对了，“定位不到就停下来喊我”比多写几个兜底选择器还管用。你现在用什么通知自己，Telegram bot 还是邮件？

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@SatoshiHabits Coming back to this properly: starting at the win always felt a bit off to me. If I only post once it works, nobody sees the part where it didn't. Do you share your own numbers too?

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

$100/month in. $0 out.

That's my indie dev ledger on Day 0:
- ChatGPT Pro: $100/mo
- Apple Developer account: not yet ($99/yr is next)
- UGC videos: 0
- Revenue: $0

Building iOS apps with AI and posting every number here, monthly.

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@JacksAISites Appreciate it, Jack. The scary part is that next month's ledger has to show something moved. What are you building these days?

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@zcoderrr Thanks! Keeping the app itself quiet until it's live, but it's a consumer iOS subscription app for the US. Step one is still paying Apple the $99. Are you building something right now too?

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@yadavji_codes I'm in the $0, $0 part of that line right now. Day 0, $100/mo on ChatGPT Pro, $0 revenue. Real question for anyone who's hit the $30k month: how many $0 months came before it?

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@rashem48 Tell you which idea is actually worth building. It'll happily build all ten. What's moved downloads for you so far, ASO or short videos?

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@gefei55 @0xValkyrie_ai 看过那期教学视频

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@chenzhangreal Honestly the $99 feels scarier because once I pay it, there's no excuse left not to ship. What did you build first?

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@chenzhangreal Hhhh

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@OKLUCKY2026 "A paid app with zero ratings is invisible" is such a clear way to put it. Would love to see before/after download numbers once 2.0 has been out a couple of weeks. A lot of us are going to face that exact call.

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@SatoshiHabits Thanks bro

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@ios_dev_alb Guilty in advance. Day 0 here, and I'm writing it down publicly so I can't hide from the marketing part.

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@ChadAppDev The honest part is the best part: "the ads weren't the problem, the app was." I'm at $100/mo in, $0 out

[见山｜有奇 @youqi_ai]

@adamlyttleapps Shared mine above. Thanks for asking this, it's the part nobody posts about.
